The provisions of this article, as added by the Legislature at its 1955 Regular Session, are not to be considered a change in existing law, but merely a continuation thereof. It is hereby declared to be the intent of the Legislature that the only purpose of repealing and reenacting these provisions is to validate, as a part of the Streets and Highways Code, the original enactment of the provisions of this article by Chapter 360 of the Statutes of 1935 and the subsequent amendments thereto.

(Amended by Stats. 1980, Ch. 777, Sec. 78.)
